I am agreeing with hbp on spino's recent post. This is one of those decisions in life that you can use all the intelegent assistance you can get. Hang in there and best wishes on your next scan and blood work hbp.

I had RP, then 44 photon radiation treatments, and two years of Lupron injections. So far, they are working. I have stage 4 aggressive cancer. After my surgery, they found cancer cells in my lymph nodes. The treatments wore me out. I am fatigued all the time and lost most of my muscles. My private parts all shrunk after each of the treatments. They currently do not work for sexual functioning. The good news is I am still alive.
